Reading file content while running on cluster

Hello,
How can I read an output file that has been saved by a function running on a server through the matlab function BATCH, before the work has completed?
for example: script.m
for ii=1: 10
x= dosomething(ii);
fwrite (file,x.'uint32');
end
running in bacth:
batch (mycluster,'script');
Goal: get file content from server while loop still running(i.e. ii=5)
Another point worth mention : file is not the output of the script nor any other function, its only saves partial results.
Thanks in advance.

Are you attempting to write the file to a location on disk that can be seen by both client and workers?

this is part of the problem. running the example above locally simply write to a local file which is visible by the user.
But when running the batch, I dont know where the file will be written. Is there a matlab function to retrieve the file location and read it (assuming its location is accessable)
